hmm link works for me. Results are on their home page rather than their 'Results' page at this stage.

Isn't the other Skyline in your group a GTST? if so, it shouldn't be in SV, its not 4wd... or was there another GTR there on the day?

Yeah the grey R32 was GTSt that guy was telling me all sorts "it can go off the clock, I've had it to 360km's per hour". I was a bit like :P

Pretty sure I was the only GTR there! Aww there webpage isnt working for me...

He didn't do too badly considering he was a 2wd in a 4wd class, there is approx 3-4 seconds between my GTR and GTST at the SDMA hillclimb at Fairbairn. According to the results, your GTR did 33.51 and the GTST did 34.42

SDMA would have put the GTST into Type 2 and if there were mods Type 3. I'll have to read the supp regs and try to work out why SV for the GTST.

Yep he did really well, was good off the line too :D They didn't put my third/last run down on results which was a 32.96, I got given the post it note when I finished my run :blink:

Are you pumped for the hillclimb??

I wish I was entered, but have a skidpan day on :(

Sat up almost all night last night with my truck packed ready to go... but the rain just wouldn't break :)

So went to the skid pan/back track on Sutton road instead for some training with Dereck at 5th Gear.

Yes true, but I would have liked to have a better look at the track before the Australian Hillclimb Championships which is the next event there.

GTSTs are in SV D as they are a low volume import. not sold in australia in full volume. it's ironic that 32 GTRs can run in type 2 etc as they were sold here by nissan, but a GTST or silvia is automatically in SV.

Hmmm I guess different clubs have different regulations - have a look at SDMA (my local club) where they only put the GTRs in SV because of 4wd and they put the GTST in Type 2, which is only fair, my little GTST couldn't compete with the GTRS and if she were heavily modded, she would need to go in type 3.

http://www.sdmahillclimb.com/ then click on highlighted text in the body of the home page "types and classes"

I was running one in each class for a while.

Why don't we get more of you guys down for this?

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By sonicii · Posted

      How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      By Jarsky · Posted

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
